Freelance Web Development

Jan 2018 - Present

8 years 10 months

Hybrid

For 10+ clients, I provided services across the full web development spectrum, from server-side logic and database design, to crafting responsive, user-friendly front-end experiences, in new or legacy projects. Whether it's debugging issues, implementing new features, or optimizing code, I helped build products that delight users and meet business objectives, either independently or in collaboration with designers, developers, and project managers. I ensured that the final product not only functions flawlessly but also looks stunning, offering a satisfying experience for both the client and its users. I also provided product management expertise, defining project requirements, objectives, and ensuring timely and budget-conscious delivery of results.
